Distinct function of SPL genes in age-related resistance in Arabidopsis
by Lanxi Hu, Peng Qi, Alan Peper, Feng Kong, Yao Yao, Li Yang
In plants, age-related resistance (ARR) refers to a gain of disease resistance during shoot or organ maturation. ARR associated with vegetative phase change, a transition from juvenile to adult stage, is a widespread agronomic trait affecting resistance against multiple pathogens. How innate immunity in a plant is differentially regulated during successive stages of shoot maturation is unclear. In this work, we found that Arabidopsis... Читать дальше...
